Can I design a Continuous two slabs by using RCDC STAAD?

Although design calculations are reported for the individual panels but you can get the reinforcement layout for the entire slab (at both top and bottom) by going to Reports > In Plan Detailing.

It's true, but if the bottom reinforcement of two slabs is the same according to the dia and spacing, RCDC didn't merge the bars of two slabs together?

Hi

RCDC generate In-plan detailing and BBS drawings for the top and bottom reinforcement.

in In-plan detailing, reinforcement shown are indicative and for the individual panel. even if the reinforcement is same at bottom for adjacent slabs, it shows separate reinforcement. it doesn't show any lapping and end anchorages in the drawing.

in BBS drawings, user can provide the maximum length of the rebar for individual panels. here the rebars are shown for individual panels.   it would be complex showing continuous rebars wherever possible as per the maximum length of rebar and as per the spans of adjacent slabs with end conditions .thus for BBS, the bottom reinforcement are shown for individual panels only
